• Edit various video materials — including raw footage, creator clips, and existing content — into ad-ready formats tailored for Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and X platforms.
• Develop captivating hooks and precise pacing that enhance viewer retention and prompt user action.
• Contribute original ideas and angles to creative concepts rather than following rigid specifications.
• Create multiple variations of successful edits to support ongoing creative experimentation.
• Implement native advertising techniques such as dynamic captions, pattern interrupts, on-screen text, and motion graphics for enhanced engagement.
• Adapt video edits to different formats and placements (9:16, 1:1, 4:5) suitable for Stories, Reels, and Feed placements.
• Analyze performance data to refine edits by emphasizing effective elements.
• Maintain a rapid and organized production workflow to ensure steady delivery of new creative content for testing.

Essential Qualifications

• Demonstrable portfolio featuring short-form video advertisements executed live on Meta and/or TikTok campaigns.
• Expert proficiency with Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects; familiarity with CapCut for quick edits.
• Strong understanding of direct-response marketing principles including hooks, angles, pacing, and the rationale behind successful cuts beyond aesthetics.
• Ability to generate a high volume of quality variants efficiently under tight deadlines.
• Proactive and self-motivated approach to work, anticipating needs and contributing ideas independently.
• Experience editing native short-form content for Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok in diverse ad formats.

Preferred Skills

• Background in consumer subscription apps, growth agencies specializing in paid social, or direct-to-consumer/e-commerce brands.
• Competency in interpreting performance metrics such as hook rate, hold rate, and click-through rate (CTR) to optimize creative strategies.
• Experience integrating AI tools into creative workflows to enhance speed and innovation.
• Enthusiasm for music and cultural trends with an eye for relevant artistic elements.
